We show that the mechanical energy injection rate generated as the intra-cluster medium (ICM) flows around cold clouds may be sufficient to power the optical and near infra-red emission of nebulae...
The generation of optical emission-line filaments in galaxy clusters (2008)
Pope, Edward, Pittard, Julian, Hartquist, Thomas, Falle, Sam
Recent data support the idea that the filaments observed in H_alpha emission near the centres of some galaxy clusters were shaped by bulk flows within their intracluster media. We present numerical...
Heating rate profiles in clusters of galaxies (2007)
Pope, Edward, Kaiser, Christian, Pavlovski, Georgi, Fangohr, Hans
The results of hydrodynamic simulations of the Virgo and Perseus clusters suggest that thermal conduction is not responsible for the observed temperature and density profiles. As a result it seems...
